Colorado Rockies Surely Headed to the Playoffs Now After Signing Orlando Arcia
Published:
Orlando Arcia was DFA’d by the Braves to accommodate Ronald Acuna Jr.’s return. Now he’s found a new team:
Atta’ boy Arcia! Maybe this is what the Rockies need to get over the hump and start the playoff push. They’re 9-46 and have lost nine of their last ten games, but if they win 81 of their remaining 107, they will finish with 90 wins and 72 losses, which will have them in playoff contention. They just need to play .757 baseball the rest of the way. Arcia could be the guy to help them get there. He brings a lot of things to Colorado, things the Rockies don’t have, like the ability to bat flip a walk and talk trash about an opposing player in the locker room even though reporters weren’t supposed to hear it. Then he’ll score a couple of early runs, only for your team to lose anyway. He’s a mush! Put Orlando Arcia in the bathroom. He’s a perfect fit for the Colorado Rockies. There hasn’t been a better fit in baseball.
